a/n: This chapter is shorter but when I work well into the night on a chapter and almost no one reviews I get depressed. If I wasn't the smug bastard that I am I might even start to doubt myself. Does that make me a whining bastard? Probably, but I don't care that's just the way I feel.

Drakken flung open the doors to his secret and low profile New Mexico back up liar. This was a spartan five room place out in the arid desert that he had originally bought in case of some major global disaster. A good half of the back up liar was an underground bunker built in the 1950s to protect people in the event of global thermonuclear war. Drakken wasn't sure if one could be protected against such a nightmarish horror at all, but the thick concrete walls gave him a feeling of security and even peace.

Drakken then walked outside through the doors he'd opened and picked up Kim. He strained to lift her once more, his body just wasn't that strong.

"Drakken, its okay. I can sleep out here?"

"In the car? Come on I owe you better."

"I don't want to inconvience you." She said. That was partly true but not as much so as the fact that she didn't want to have to be carried by someone, she never wanted to have anything like this for her. It made her feel completely powerless.

"You won't Kimmy. I may be a dork but I'm still as Cedric would say...a grown ass man. Now come on, your coming in. I'm not having you freeze out here."

With that Drakken picked up Kim's broken body in both of his sore arms. He still wasn't used to really lifting anything heavier then a 16 ounce soda and his body hurt quite a bit from the effort. His neck was by far the worst and Drakken was worried that he was going to break a disk and be as immobile as Kim. And if he got hurt like that then they'd both be immobile and probably would be doomed. It was not a pleasant thought.

Kim felt the urge to cry coming on again from this. She sighed noticeably.

"What's wrong?" Drakken asked.

"You wouldn't want to here it."

Drakken then carried Kim through the doorway, being careful not to bang her into the walls as he did. For a minute the blue man thought that he was a newly wed carrying his new wife through the threshold of a hotel room as custom said he had too. It was a pleasing one for Drakken, a man who was insufferable romantic at heart.

Drakken set Kim and the blanket she was wrapped in down on the couch. It was just about the only comfortable piece of furniture in the whole liar. The main room of the liar was pretty spartan, there being a TV and a small refrigerator. It was connected to a couple of other rooms like the kitchen, the henchmen's quarters and other empty places. There were no henchmen or doomsday machines here, all those had been back at the old liar. And Shego had taken them all by this point, of that Drakken was totally sure.

"That couch not too hard for you?"

"Its fine."

"Look Kim, I'm just trying to help you."

"I know." She said.

"Do you not want me to help you?"

"I don't have a choice. But I don't like leaning on others for support. It goes against everything that I believe in."

"You said it yourself, your human."

"Yes Drakken." She said. There was a pause. "But I don't really want to be human."

Drakken took that in for a few seconds. He understood. "I know."

"Do you?"

"How do you think my skin got blue in the first place. I took a very badly executed dive into the gene pool. My goal was to become a superhuman monster, with steel muscles and bulletproof skin. I would have been like the Incredible Hulk. But I failed in my calculations and all I got for it was very weird looking blue skin."

"Why did you want to be like that?"

"Because with superhuman strength no one would have been able to harm me. I'd never have to worry about anything ever again."

Kim seemed to comprehend. "I know. I don't want to vulnerable either. Pardon my French but I think that notion about vulnerability being essential to being human, I think its a load of bullshit. And even if it's true I don't want to be human. I don't want to be like THEM."

"I'd take security over being a puny human anydays."

"So would I Drew."

"Back in the old liar, I would have sold my soul to be tough enough to tell Shego to go fuck herself. I would have given up even the basest elements of humanity. Because as anyone whose really been hit knows, the most powerful force in life isn't love, its pain."

"I know." Kim exhaled again, as if somehow trying to expel all of the despair from her lungs. Drakken saw her cry again, the emotional walls breaking apart.

"Its okay Kimmy. I know all about hurt. I won't reject you."

"Do you think that you live after you die?"

"Why are you asking?"

"You were a scientist of sorts. I was kind of hoping that you'd know the answer, or at least have speculated upon it."

"Such things can not be proven by science, they exist outside of it. But if it helps I believe you can come back as whatever you want."

"Really?"

"Yes. I will be a cute bunny rabbit."

"And why is that?"

"Because no one would ever suspect the bunny rabbit." Drakken then laughed evilly. He had visions of a bunny rabbit stealing government secrets and burning down the schools he had used to go too.

"I was hoping for a guess that was a little more serious."

"You don't want that particular opinion."

"You don't think I can deal with it?"

"My honest opinion is that when your dead your probably dead."

"That's probably true." She sighed.

"You want to watch the TV a little? I'm pretty sure it still works." Drakken picked up a remote control and switched on the TV set. Right away it could be determined that all was not right with the world. The screen showed a news helicopter flying over a sea of fire. The remnants of buildings could bee seen below the flying machine, a reporter was looking out over it with a microphone.

"I see the evil has been busy." Kim said in with some resignation. With her defeated there was nothing to halt the progress of the evil.

The TV spoke. "For those of you just joining us the scene is downtown San Francisco. There has been some kind of attack by a villain or group of villains, the cause of which remains unknown. What we do know is that they possess some kind of high energy weapon that they fired upon the city earlier today. And that this weapon is space orientated, as the beam of energy came almost directly overhead."

There was a re-play of a beam from blue-ish white energy coming down from the sky and burning up dozens of buildings. A huge firestorm was now raging through out the California Bay Area.

The TV spoke again. "It has just now come to our attention that the group of villains are now handing down a list of demands to the leaders of the world. Information on these demands shall come as soon as we receive the specifics upon them."

Drakken's eyes narrowed in horror as he watched people burn. "Shego." He said. "She's the one doing this."

"How do you know?"

"Just a hunch I suppose. And if not her, then one of those jackasses."

"I'd guess so. But what can I do?"

"Very little. Your leg is broken." Drakken then stood up. "Those villains have to be stopped Kim Possible."

"I can't stop them."

"I didn't say you were going to be the one."

It didn't take Kim long to register what this meant.

"No." The redhead said. "You can't mean that."

"Kimmy...there's no one else." Drakken then paused. "I'll be back by nightfall, in time to make us both some microwave pizza."

He then headed out of the room.

"Drew! No! You can't do this!"

"I have a couple of toys I've been working on in the basement. Ray guns and armour and what not. They'll do for this."

"Drew...please! Don't go...you weren't any good at being a villain...what makes you think you can be a hero?"

"Its simple deduction." Drew said. "Villain was part of a long line of things I wasn't any good at. Eventually if I keep scratching things off of a list we'll run into one I can do."

Kim tried to stand up and fell onto the floor. She grabbed his left leg. "Drew! Please! Don't go!" She began to cry on his leg.

"Kimmy those freaks just wiped out half of San Francisco. Tomorrow it may be New York or L.A. They won't stop just with one crime."

"Drew...don't go! I don't want you to die!"

"I'll be fine."

"Your lying!"

"Don't worry Kimmy, I'll be fine. They may have the muscle, but I have the tools."

"Drakkie...don't die!"

"I won't. Like I said. I'll be back shortly."

Drakken began to suit up.

A few of the henchmen at the evil liar stood bored at their guard positions.

"This taking over the world stuff is slow." One said stupidly.

"Really. You'd think Dementor could just invent a take over the world button."

"Or like a beer creating button. That would be even cooler."

The two henchmen were flattened as an object flew downward from the sky and landed upon them both with such speed that they were run through by it's metal legs.

"Hate to drop in." Drakken said lamely. The supposed genius was clad in a suit of futuristic power armour that protected much of his body and gave him robotic strength. A gattling gun protruded from the right arm of the machine. The other arm had a mechanized fist. He had crushed the henchmen on his way down. "Wait." Drakken realized in a rare moment of clarity. "That wasn't funny at all."

He was then ambushed by a whole group of green and black goons. Drakken saw right away that Kim had been right, these were not the same goons as before. To a man they were all much stronger.

"Lets get em'!" One snarled in henchman fashion. "Crush that guy!"

They charged forth at him like a pack of wild dogs.

"Lets rock." The blue man stated, firmly smug with his robot suit on. He opened fire with his gattling gun, bringing them down left and right. Only three of them got through the fire but they were mean at seeing their brainless buddies gunned down. They tackled him to the floor.

But Drakken was not down for long. The armour gave him greater strength then all of the thugs put together. He tossed them aside with an evil howl. Then for added emphasis he grabbed one of his former minions and threw him through the air.

The gate to the liar was now in front of him. The steel door was pretty thick but Drakken had planned for dealing with armored stuff earlier on. He played with the controls of his gattling gun until he set it to change weapons. The automatic slug thrower was retracted into the body of the armor and a rack of powerful missiles appeared.

"And he said...MWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Drakken roared with his evil laugh. He watched as the missiles surged forth to level the liar door and blow a huge hole in the walls. He strode through the wreckage cockily and then saw the shocked looks upon the masses of henchmen and the two villains who were on the scene.

Drakken couldn't resist it. "I am back." He stated grimly.

Drakken's terminator imitation deserted him as he burst out laughing at his former villain accomplices.

"What the fuck is going on?" One the henchmen stammered in utter disbelief. Doctor Drakken was storming the evil liar.

Shego stood up and walked out from behind the shadows of the monstrous henchmen. "Well well if it isn't Drakken. And he's decided to blow up part of our very expensive evil liar. What a big mistake."

"But what's he doing blowing up the liar? He's evil!" The henchman said.

"I'm foiling your evil scheme!" Drakken smirked. "Starting now."

"Incoming!" A henchmen yelled as Drakken opened up on them, a barrage of anti personnel missiles blasting forth to take out a cluster of henchmen and destroy much furniture.

"Drakken's gone crazy!" One of the minions stuttered.

"No." Shego finally realized with a shocked expression. "Much worse then that. He's gone GOOD."

All of the henchmen gasped in animated disbelief.

"Say it ain't so mistah Drakken!" One yelled.

"Its so." Drakken grinned as he had the armor swap missile rack for gattling gun. He then blasted that particular henchman. "Prepare to be Drakkenated."

Another salvo of fire pinned down the villains.

"Alrite." Shego growled with a determined grimace. "I am NOT getting killed by that blue buffoon." She then snarled loudly as her hands were ablaze with green hellfire. Shego jumped through the air and landed right in front of Drakken.

"Epp." Drakken stated as Shego got up from her landing position.

"Lets end this blue boy." The villain uttered. Then her hands were coming straight at his fear stricken face.
